At the end when we got the last person in, our chain grew to 70 strangers holding hand in hand to save these people.

The Chinese people keep bowing their head to me telling me thank you. The son of the grandmother shake my hand and told me thank you for saving us. I had people telling everyone who was involved thank you over and over again! Had we NOT had the surf board, the boggie boards, the HUMAN chain of over 70 inspiring life saving people and just staying calm to get out of the rip tide, we would have never been able to bring them to shore alive.

OK, I had Clemson for two years running but I could re-think that for next January...

Oh lyle, I'd been meaning to acknowledge that you were were right about our now banished "friend"--when I asked for week of NO COMMENTS AT ALL, you said OK, but that it would not cause him to leave.
His posts did decrease in frequency that week, and I didn't have to read all the pissing an moaning ones about him either, but --he didn't leave.

The Sundance article lurkersusie linked earlier is a must read. Check out the pictures all the way to the end of the thread. It sure does seem extremely plausible that you this Russian lawyer meeting with Trump Jr was a sting operation setup by the Obama administration and/or the Deep State.

Really sick of the creatures from the DC swamp obstructing a government??: of, by, and FOR the people of USA--not leakers, losers and a greedy dangerous world order...

Today's tragic C130 accident, the unexplicable Fitzgerald horror, North Korea's 'bomb-a-day missile program, Iranian-Russian terror business, market and territory manipulation by the Chinese, the media propaganda sponsored by political favored status---illegal immigration dangers ignored to aid campaign donors, the blight caused and race/class divisions used to garner votes..are the results of weakness disguised by the arrogance of leaders like Obama, Clinton and the capitulation of a false "loyal opposition"... not the deplorable's choice, Trump...

A Naive, un-polished brash businessman is beyond the greedy or elite "do as I say, not as I do" America diminishment the deepstate, losing their power, can understand or accept.
So, resign --get another worthwhile job, because Trump is the President, let him lead --help the country --not your self-interests , please!!

I'm talking to you, Congress, ?press?, what kind of Special are you, Director Mueller? You work for the citizens of America, not a personal political ideology, Sir ?

This Don Jr story has to be the most laughable part of this story yet. I guess that's why they held it for last.
Seems to me a US citizen interested in claimed evidence of corruption by a former high government official running for President of the US deserves a medal.

Would that some of the goddamned, tits-on-a-boar law enforcement a-holes actually tasked with prosecuting corruption of high government officials showed the same interest.

Miss Marple,
It is my understanding after consulting experts in the field that if all else fails in tackling your computer problem, placing your PC in front of the tracks of a D-8 Caterpillar bulldozer and engaging forward and then reverse ~5 times and then dropping the PC into one of those abandoned flooded limestone quarries Indiana seems so blessed with [as is my part of CA] is remarkably effective...well, come to think of it it's not effective at anything, but boy would it be satisfying.

"In the Times’ first story published Saturday, reporting a meeting among Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort, and a Russian lawyer, the meeting is curiously described as “previously unreported,” despite the fact that both Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort disclosed the meeting before the Times’ reporting.

The Times’ own reporting admits this several paragraphs down and then adds, “Because Donald Trump Jr. does not serve in the administration and does not have a security clearance, he was not required to disclose his foreign contacts.” In short, this meeting, which was portrayed as nefarious across several anti-Trump media outlets, was disclosed and openly reported by its attendees — Kushner and Manafort."

anyone else find it curious that this Russian lawyer who is allegedly an agent of the Russian government tasked to collude with the Trump team neither writes nor reads english (according to her sworn court declaration)?

Zathras talks, they may hear but not listen. So Zathras talks to dirt. Or to walls, or talks to ceilings. But dirt is closer. Dirt is used to everyone walking on it. Just like Zathras. Zathras not understand, but Zathras do. Zathras good at doings, not understandings. Zathras is used to being beast of burden. Very sad life. Probably have... very sad death. But... at least there is Symmetry.
